Dear Sir,
http://www.dharitri.com/220710/story9.php
The news is absolutely true. Not only non teaching even teaching faculty
positions is going to be filled with only Bengali. And I have been
exposed well to even different IITs and professor. If you observe, you
can understand in all new IITs, the faculty position is filled by
somehow somewhere related to mentoring IITs, mentoring persons. As I
have observed, you are writing daring/truth/pinpointed/ revolutionary
article regarding judicial system, really I appreciate it and support
it. Even I have observed you have expressed concerned in your column
against brain drain (now it is like creating all sort of propellant to
go out of India, like torturing the brain to go out). I would suggest
please go for an investigation in your level (or Journalist level, even
Dr. Barendra krushna Dhal could be an able person to look in to and
write on this matter giving the data and evidences), you will see lots
of irregularity/malpractices even higher level of appointment like IIT
faculty. This is high time to protect the only a premier organization in
Orissa, in its childhood, otherwise it would full of those things like
in IOP, RRL and many more. May be in past there were not much highly
qualified, talented educationalist, researcher, but in current scenario,
you can see 1000 of the best Oriya qualified people ready to serve, but
neglected. I can guarantee one thing for sure other than Nobel
laureates, in which kind of faculty one wants can get from oriya even.
Lots of oriya Ph.Ds even from world class organization is waiting to
serve Orissa. It is very grave issue now. Needs to be addressed
properly, and I do believe you have revolutionary vision to bring change
in society through pen. Please have a look in to this matter, I am sure
you will get lots of unbelievable stuffs there could be great news.
I never believe in provincialism, but the issue is so grave now in the
country, it is like racism issue in developed countries. But, if I, we
started telling global village scene, How an Oriya will survive. Because
of provincialism we cannot be fit in other states and again because of
the same cause even in Orissa. I do personally believe now IITs are no
more cosmopolitan, rather it is regional or provincial institute, why
should not we protect our generation. Please have a look in to this
smatter.
I am feeling like it is high time to bring laws like Laws against
racism. Anyway no one going listening our words, just expressing a
concern and expressing view. I would like to share a funny experience
regarding IIT Kharagpur, I have attended an interview for a junior
research fellow position in Chemistry department, some of the faculty
was asking question and discussing even in an interview board in
Bengali. I would not tell it is love to a language rather told blind. If
you feel I do not have any problem, if you can publish this as letter to
editor column.
